Make Carpets Look Like New

High foot traffic areas may cause your carpets to look like they've been through a war zone, or your sofas to look dirty and drab. Our steam cleaning services can get these areas looking brand, spanking new!

Simple, Honest Pricing Structure

We like to keep things simple at Vac N Steam, so we charge based on number of bedrooms, rather than complicated area based quotes. We charge a flat $50/bedroom sized room (approx. 3m x 4m) and for areas larger than this we try to equate to this size. Please note, we also have a 2 room minimum for all jobs ($100 min charge). This is due to the heavy equipment required for steam cleaning.

We provide prices for our carpet cleaning through using the following guidelines:

  • Living Room or 2 x Bedrooms = $100
  • Stairs or 1.5 x Bedroom = $75
  • Landings/Passageways or 0.5 x Bedroom = $25
  • Sofas (per seat) or 1 Bedroom = $50
If you have a large amount of carpet we can often provide you an estimate using the above chart and then firm up the price on the day. We can often discount our carpet cleaning prices for larger jobs too, so feel free to ask!

What Steam Cleaning Can and Cannot Do

Steam Cleaning is an excellent solution to bringing carpets back to their former glory. It’s important to understand what is and isn’t possible though to ensure that expectations are managed.

What It Can Do:

Steam cleaning is one of the only services that truly deep cleans your carpets, removing dirt or dust settled deep inside the carpet. The hot steam also kills the bacteria, allergens, parasites, viruses, germs and it destroys fungus and dust mites. Steam cleaning can also help remove stubborn odors from things like pet urine (however it can not be guaranteed!)

What It Can’t Do:

Steam cleaning is extremely effective at deep cleaning carpets and upholstery, but unfortunatley like all things in life, it has its limits. One of the biggest challenges in steam cleaning is linked to stains. Some stains simply do not come out. Whether or not they can be removed depend on:

  • 1) The stain substance
  • 2) How long the stains were left before treatment
  • 3) The type of fibres of the carpet
Please note that we, like other companies, can not guarantee any stain removal.

Other factors that are unfortunately out of our control and may affect the result of your steam cleaning are:

Colour changes of carpet due to sunlight Natural aging of carpet Aging and deterioration of adhesion underneath carpet Lasting odours*

*Please note that steam cleaning can help, if not fully remove lasting odours from carpets, however again, this can not be guaranteed. We have found on occasions where there are severe lasting odours (normaly from animal urine) that two steam cleaning services were required, with time for the carpets to dry and airate in between. If you have severe odours, please note you may need to book and pay for two steam cleaning services. Unfortunately we can not guarantee the result as occasionally the smelly substances will have seeped lower than the carpet fibres.

How Long Does It Take To Dry?

This is a tricky question to answer as the time carpets take to dry depend on a few things:

  • 1. The type/thickness of carpet
  • 2. The weather that day (and thus the air temperature)
  • 3. The type of machine used (and thus how much steam used)
  • 4. The condition of the carpet
In general however, we would say that most carpets dry within 4-8 hours. Faster and slower than this is possible, especially depending on the weather, but this would be our general estimate.

How much does carpet cleaning cost?
